when i did the testing then i was able to get zero VM exits in the
lat_ctx hotpath and get the same performance as on native. The above
numbers you got suggest that this is not the case. (your lat_ctx numbers
on native are probably around 1 usec, right?) If that is the case, could
you check via profile=kvm (or whatever other method you use to profile
KVM) where the VM exits come from?
